Chapter 388: Get along
When she returned to the room, the Wu family broke away from everyone, leaving only Lu Shuyi alone, and cautiously inquired about Lu Shuyi's visit to the palace yesterday, when she heard Lu Shuyi say that she won the game of chess against Huo Wangye, she immediately broke out in a cold sweat, shivered all over her body, and said nervously: "You kid, how can you win the prince?" Do you know how many people want to hunch over and slap him with their tails between them? Ay...... He didn't embarrass you, did he? ”
After a pause, he sighed and said, "Even if it's difficult, what can we do?" People are soft-spoken......"
“…… But my mother has thought about it, we don't live here anymore, go back early, and stay away from this place. ”
Wu sat up straight, she really didn't want to worry about it anymore, she was too tired and tired these days, she was tense every day, and the world seemed to collapse at any time.
She made up her mind and said: "Ming'er, I will go to the palace with you, explain the situation to the princess, and the day after tomorrow, we will leave Baoding Mansion and go home......"
"You want to go back?" Lu Shuyi blinked, if she went back, she didn't know when she would be able to come to Baoding Mansion again......
And she may not be safe when she goes back.
In addition, now Mrs. Lu treats her as a baby, and she looks forward to her getting closer to the people in the palace every day, how can she go back at this juncture?
She shook her head: "What are you going to say on Grandmother's side?" ”
Wu took her hand and said lightly: "If you want to say anything, you don't care, I'll just say it." ”
"What if Grandmother won't let us go back? Or what if she gets angry? ”
Wu didn't think about it, and said directly: "If you are angry, you will be angry, I can't care so much now." I can't gamble with my daughter's life, can I? ”
She felt that Lu Shuyi's safety had been seriously threatened, and she could no longer let it go.
"But mother......" Lu Shuyi pulled Wu's sleeve. I wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Wu: "There is nothing to discuss." I'm in charge of this, we have to go back. ”
She was also young and knew what Lu Shuyi thought.
The tone softened slightly, and he took Lu Shuyi's hand and said: "It's not that my mother won't let you live here, and it's not that my mother intends to break up, but you also saw how dangerous it was that night, although I didn't find the murderer, but I was always unsteady in my heart." I always feel that this matter is inseparable from the palace. ”
“…… Your mother and I are not stupid, I also have my own judgment, I know that Huo Er Gongzi is a good person, but after living in Baoding Mansion these days, I also inquired about the Huo family's affairs, and knew that Huo Er Gongzi is in a difficult situation now, if he is really for your good, he should let you leave this place of right and wrong, instead of letting you stay. Become the target of public criticism. ”
Wu Shi said so many words in one breath, her face was very ugly.
Lu Shuyi has never seen her so strict for many years, this is the first time.
She didn't say anything else, just nodded silently: "Then everything is up to your ......"
Wu's face was only slightly better.
Wait until the next day. When Lu Shuyi went to the palace again, the Wu family went with her.
The princess was very enthusiastic and ordered someone to make the best tea. Made the best dim sum to entertain the Wu family, treated as a guest.
Wu was a little restless. If Lu Shuyi is not allowed to come, she doesn't know how to speak.
The princess smiled and said to the Wu family: "You are really a blessed person. My daughter is intimate, look at me, I don't have a daughter. ”
Wu's face was red, still a little embarrassed.
Usually she is not a talkative person, but now she is facing the princess, and she always has a feeling of panic.
Fortunately, the princess spoke very softly and didn't take a stand at all, which made her feel a little more relaxed.
She pursed her lips and talked about the scene when she gave birth to Lu Shuyi: "...... At that time, my mother-in-law heard that it was a girl, and she was actually not happy, but I liked it myself, the girl was beautiful and gentle, and she was caring when she grew up, that is, ...... is to marry someone in the future, and it is inevitable to be sad and sad. ”
This remark is much more touching than Mrs. Lu's politeness.
The princess frowned, sighed, and said: "Women are always wronged in these things, and it is not easy for you...... and then smiled again: "You just look at it, your grievances are not in vain, how good the children are." ”
Wu always felt that people like the princess should not be easy to get close to, but she didn't expect to speak so down-to-earth, no different from ordinary people, so she completely relaxed, and said with a smile: "Yes, the bitterness is coming." The children are also angry, don't let me worry about it, and they are all very sensible. ”
She looked at Lu Shuyi with a smile, her eyes full of love.
The princess thinks that Wu is a very good woman, unlike the noble ladies she socializes on weekdays, who hold you one by one, and her words are boundless and insincere.
Wu is very sincere, and Lu Shuyi's sincere character should also follow her mother.
The princess was very satisfied with the Wu family, and she specially ordered someone to take two fine peacock silk and give them to the Wu family, "This peacock silk is a thing in the palace, it is finer than the usual, and the patterns are also bright, you just make clothes to wear." ”
While deliberately getting up and holding the peacock silk to compare it on Wu's body, he smiled and said, "Well, the color is very good for your skin, I will send someone to send you a carriage later." ”
Seeing that Wu had just eaten two pieces of pea yellow, he instructed Mama Qiu: "Let the kitchen make a few more fine snacks for Mrs. Lu to bring." ”
The Wu family was flattered and hurriedly stopped: "The princess doesn't have to bother......
The princess smiled and said, "Don't bother, don't bother, it's the kitchen and not me." ”
Faced with such a situation, Wu couldn't say anything if he wanted Lu Shuyi to go back.
However, the princess was concerned about her body again, and Wen Yan asked, "I heard Yi'er say that your health is not good, but now you are better?" ”
asked what kind of medicine she was taking, and she planned to prepare a few pills for the Wu family in the palace......
Wu's stomach was full of words, he could only get stuck in his throat and couldn't spit it out, and in his heart he scolded himself for being unproductive, eating people's soft mouths and taking people's short hands. Her hands are short, and her mouth is soft......
Lu Shuyi also saw Wu's hesitation. Holding back a smile in his heart, he waited for the two to get into the carriage. She chuckled and asked Wu, "Didn't you say that you wanted to tell the princess about our going back?" Why didn't you say it? ”
Wu Shi blushed, looked at the two peacock silks on the carriage and sighed: "I really didn't expect the princess to treat us so warmly, she is so enthusiastic, you told me to say so?" ”
In the end, I had to sigh and say, "That's it, let's stay a few more days......"
Lu Shuyi laughed, leaned her head on Wu's arms, and said affectionately: "Don't worry, I will be safe." ”
Wu touched her hair and said earnestly, "You are a piece of meat that fell from my body." I also feel bad to see you suffer, and as long as you are safe in the future, I will have nothing to ask for. ”
And the princess could vaguely feel Wu's worries.
After the Wu family left, she immediately ordered someone to invite Huo Tianyou over and discussed with him: "Yi'er staying in Baoding Mansion is never a way, what are you going to do?" ”
Huo Tianyou's attitude was very clear, and he said without any thought: "Naturally, I want to marry her into the door, and I can feel at ease when I marry her." ”
became his person, and he could protect her better by following him all the time.
The princess frowned. The slender fingers gently rubbed the pastel tea bowl on the table, and sighed: "If you want to marry into the door, talk about He Rurong, and don't say anything else, just your father's pass." I can't get by......"
Huo Tianyou didn't intend to give up, his eyes were clear, he looked at the princess very seriously and said, "Mother." I know it's hard, but ...... I'd like to give it a try. ”
That look is extraordinarily stubborn. It's distressing to watch.
The princess's brows deepened, and she quietly looked at the beauty on one side and thought for a long time. Only then did he say slowly: "Anyway, the road is up to you, you have to plan it yourself, as a mother, I should have stopped you from the beginning of this matter, but ...... But I really can't be ruthless to stop my son from pursuing his own happiness, so in this matter, I will never stop you, I will only support you and help you. ”
Huo Tianyou curled the corners of his mouth gratefully: "I know that you are the best for me in this world, no matter what happens, you will stand by my side and support me." ”
He sensationalized: "...... Thank you. ”
The princess raised her hand and gently tapped it on his forehead, which was her favorite action when she was a child, but when the child was older, she didn't do it.
"You, don't make me happy." She smiled and said, "You and I should be ready and planned, if your father insists on refusing, what should we do?" ”
Huo Tianyou grinned and said confidently: "Don't worry, my father won't keep his mouth shut." ”
"Oh?" The princess came to her senses, sat up straight, and said seriously: "Do you already have any plans?" Let's hear it. ”
She raised her hand and took the tea cup on the table, took a sip gently, and listened carefully to what Huo Tianyou said.
Huo Tianyou deliberately sold it, and said with a smile: "Keep it secret for the time being, and I'll tell you when it's done." ”
The princess immediately put down the teacup in her hand, didn't want to wait for a moment, and said solemnly: "Don't cut it first, tell me quickly, how do you plan it?" ”
Huo Tianyou knew that he couldn't hide it, so he told the princess about his plan, and said: "The reason why my father doesn't agree to my marriage with Yi'er is because of Yi'er's background, but if I raise Yi'er's worth, can my father still disagree?" ”
The princess was confused when she heard this, and said anxiously: "You say the point, this person's worth is not to say that it can be raised, especially the family, then it is so easy to raise?" Unless her father suddenly received the Dragon's ......"
Speaking of this, she suddenly paused and hesitated: "Could it be ......?"
Huo Tianyou took a sip of tea with a smile and nodded: "Yes, you guessed right, I want to find a stepfather for Yi'er." ”
The princess exhaled a long breath, the method is a good way, but with a family background like the Lu family, would the elder or important minister of the court be willing to accept her as a righteous daughter?
The princess thought the idea was a bit whimsical.
However, Huo Tianyou had a confident expression, and said lightly: "Anyway, don't worry about this matter, I will arrange a good family background for Yi'er, which is good enough for her father to accept her, not only to accept, but also to make her father value her." ”
His expression was resolute, not at all like he was talking empty words.
The princess was extremely worried, and always felt that something big would happen......
The days are getting warmer, the weather is getting longer, and the house that the Lu family bought in Baoding Mansion has been cleaned up.
And Huo Tianyou often appears in the Lu family as Mr. Bai, and the marriage of the two is on the agenda.
Mrs. Lu had previously invested in the salt well jointly opened by King Huainan and the Pan family through Master Lu Liu, and really made a lot of money, and Mrs. Lu was very happy about this, and privately found Master Lu Liu, and gave him another 400,000 taels of silver, all of which were invested in Yanjing.
However, these 400,000 taels of silver are almost all the silver that the Lu family can turn over, and all of them are used in Yanjing.
Lu Shuyi couldn't dissuade her, she could only watch Old Lady Lu move closer to the Pan family and King Huainan, the only thing she could do was not to let her father get involved in all this, for fear that it would be difficult to clear up the relationship in the future.
However, the relationship between the Wu family and the Huo family is getting closer and closer, and Prince Huo also specially went to the court to explain Wu Chengzeng's donation of military rations.
The emperor knew that after the dragon Yan read it, he specially rewarded the Wu family, rewarded a number of gold and silver, and personally wrote a plaque for Wu Ji rice grain, the Wu family immediately doubled its value because of this matter, and the people who cooperated with it were also endless, and the guests who were robbed by the Pan family in the past also abandoned the Pan family and returned to the Wu family.
With such a momentum, Wu's happy mouth couldn't close, and he sat on the edge of the kang while doing needlework, and said to Lu Er: "I really never dreamed that when my brother was so promising, the Wu family could have such a beautiful time." But it was a great pity: "It's just that I've been in Baoding Mansion these days, and I didn't see it with my own eyes when the emperor gave me the plaque, which is a pity." ”
"I saw it, the pomp was huge, and people all over the street ran to see the excitement." Second Master Lu was also very happy, drinking tea on one wall and saying on the other: "The bitterness is sweet, and it is also boiled up by my mother-in-law." ”
Wu felt that what Second Master Lu said was very right, her mother had survived for so many years, and it was time to enjoy a good life.
"Right now, I just hope that Mo Ju can marry in peace, give our old Wu family a branch earlier, and when I hug the fat doll, my sister will be meritorious." Wu smiled.
However, Second Master Lu frowned, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.
In fact, there is one thing he has been hiding from the Wu family and not saying it, not because he didn't say it, but because the matter involved Wu Cheng, and the Yang family told him not to let him tell the Wu family......
But there are some things that cannot be hidden.
Second Master Lu thought for a moment, but decided to mention it to the Wu family. (To be continued......)
